Vision Not Victim

From the creator

United Nations - The Vision Not Victim (VNV) programme, created by Meredith Hutchison in partnership with the International Rescue Committee, aims to give adolescent girls a chance to develop and explore their aspirations through art. It calls on them to design visions of their futures using photography and other media, which they can use to challenge social norms. VNV engages parents, local leaders and communities to try to change their view of girls, and in turn to create community solutions to combat gender inequality and violence against women and girls. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs showcased a collection of these photographs in an exhibition on display during the General Assembly's high-level summit to address large movements of refugees and migrants.
